Embattled singerĀ R Kelly has come under a new wave of heat after a lawyer who once defended him during a decade-old child pornography case, revealed the singer is actually guilty.
According to the lawyer, the singer was found guilty of those chargesĀ and had to be placed on anti-libido drugs to curb his urges.
Ed Genson, 77, while speaking with the Chicago Sun-Times said;
āHe was guilty as hell!.ā He added that he, however, believes the āTrapped in the Closetā crooner has not done anything āinappropriateā in years.
āIāll tell you a secret. I had him go to a doctor to get shots, libido-killing shots. Thatās why he didnāt get arrested for anything elseāĀ he said. Genson, who has terminal bile duct cancer, told the paper he doesnāt feel ambivalent about getting Kelly acquitted and keeping him out of prison in 2008.
āI didnāt facilitate him. He had already done what heād done. I did facilitate him in the sense I kept him out of trouble for 10 years. I was vetting his records. I listened to them, which ones would make a judge madāĀ Genson said.
Genson went on saying a song by the singer 2003ās āIgnitionāĀ tipped him off that Kelly might actually be into underage girls, he said.Ā āI was riding in the car, listening to a song and said, āAre you crazy? This is all I need,āā Genson recalled. Ā āItās a song related to a guy driving around in a car with his girlfriend. It was originally a high school instructor in a class teaching people how to drive a car. I changed the words,ā he said.
Genson added that despite Kellyās many hit songs, he is ānot a very bright person.ā
āWhat he doesnāt understand is this: If you win a case with somebody, they think theyāre bulletproof. Youāre almost better off, sort of, losing. He thinks he can do whatever the hell he wants. He has done everything he can to hurt himselfā Genson said.
R Kelly has been slammed with 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse, to include one against minors.
